A
Today
we
have
a
group
of
volunteers
with
us
that
are
volunteering
to
do
a
stream
clean
up.
We
do
this
several
times
a
year
and
they're
out
helping
today
to
help
improve
our
local
waterways,
as
well
as
the
waterways
of
the
Potomac
and
the
Chesapeake
Bay.
Having
clean
streams
is
always
really
important.
A
Clean
water
is
essential
not
just
to
ourselves,
because
we
do
get
our
water,
our
drinking
water,
from
the
Potomac
River,
but
it's
also
important
to
our
local
wildlife
and
to
anyone
who
wants
to
come
out
and
enjoy
the
streams
on
a
nice
day
to
cool
off
or
just
to
throw
some
rocks
and
have
some
fun.
It's
nice,
knowing
that
the
water
is
clean
and
sink.
A
A
lot
of
what
is
on
our
streets
ends
up
in
our
waterways
from
the
storm
drains
and
makes
its
way
in
big.
We
have
big
torrents
of
water
that
come
through
these
streams
and
carry
a
lot
of
debris
with
them,
and
so,
after
each
rain
event,
there's
typically
a
few
bits
of
trash
here
and
there
in
our
streams
that
need
picking
up.
We
have
people
come
out
and
help
us
to
do
stream
cleanups
at
least
four
times
a
year.
A
There
is
an
adoptive
stream
program
in
Arlington,
so
you
can
adopt
a
local
stream
or
the
stream
near
you.
You
have
to
just
sign
up
and
take
a
pledge
to
have
yourself
or
gather
a
group
of
neighbors
or
Scouts,
whoever
it
happens
to
be,
and
you
just
have
to
pledge
to
clean
the
stream
four
times
a
year.
So
we
do
have
a
group
that
does
that
and
today
actually
we're
doing
an
extra
clean
up.
A
So
we're
going
to
be
extra
clean
this
year
and
it's
important
because
whatever
we
don't
pick
up
here,
is
going
to
end
up
further
down
in
somebody
else's
part
of
the
stream.
So
I
like
to
tell
all
the
volunteers
we
have
out
when
we
do
stream
cleanups,
that
when
you
are
just
cleaning
our
little
creek
here,
you're
keeping
four
mile
run
clean
you're,
keeping
the
Potomac
clean
and
which
also
means
you're,
keeping
the
Chesapeake
Bay
and
the
Atlantic
clean.
A
So
we're
not
just
cleaning
one
little
stream,
we're
cleaning
all
those
places
in
just
a
couple
of
hours.
We
have
the
Kiwanis
Club
at
today,
helping
us
out
and
they're
a
great
organization.
They
haven't
been
out
with
us
before,
but
they
do
a
lot
of
work
around
here
and
there
are.
We
are
really
happy
to
have
them
and,
just
as
we
are
happy
to
have
any
or
all
volunteers
that
we
have
out
helping
us
here
in
the
parks,
oh.
B
It's
a
lot
of
fun.
It
was
a
great
way
to
cool
off
on
a
hot
day
and
good
to
get
out
here
with
friends
and
also
yeah
definitely
great
project.
Well,
there
was,
there
was
definitely
more
trash
than
I.
Probably
would
have
thought
of.
It
seems
like
a
lot
of
it
might
have
washed
off
the
side
and
from
the
other
streams.
But
as
our
guide
had
said,
you
know,
if
you
can
stop
it
here,
it
gets
it
from
being
in
the
Potomac
or
the
Chesapeake.
So
you.
A
Know
Arlington
is
small,
but
we
do
have
a
good
amount
of
park
space.
We
have
a
lot
of
waterways
and
a
lot
of
pathways,
and
so
you
know
little
hands,
make
light
work
and
so
the
more
people
we
can
get
out
and
get
involved
in
our
park
system
being
at
cleaning
the
streams,
monitoring
the
water
or
pulling
in
vases
or
just
lending
a
hand
wherever
they
can,
if
you're
walking
in
the
parks-
and
you
see
a
little
bit
of
trash
just
being
a
good
Samaritan
and
picking
it
up.
